USB Backup & Restore
Introduction
It is recommended you make a backup of your gauge settings. The USB tab in the CONNECTION or HARDWARE screen allows the gauge settings to be backed up to a USB stick. The backup can then be used to restore the original settings in the event they are altered inadvertently or become corrupted during a software update.
